This term has flown by! The children have been working incredibly hard and should be so proud of themselves, as we are of them!
We introduced our new RE curricullum this term, focusing on Creation and Covenant. The children have reflected on how they can be Stewards of Creation and look after 'Our Common Home.' The Otters have also been leading their Class Assemblies, based on the coming Sunday's gospel. They have prepared and presented these beautifully, many using their computing skills to share their very own Powerpoints with the class.
They have also been fantastic story-tellers, basing their writing on the books, 'Mrs Noah's Garden' and 'Gigantic.' We have been focusing on previous learning and re-capping skills and expectations. The children have enjoyed writing their narratives up, using their beautiful handwriting that we have been practising, daily.
In addition, the children have learnt all about Georgian Bath. They loved making their very own 'Sham Castles,' and looking at Georgian Bath on our recent trip.
Another highlight from this term has been the introduction of our Mental Health Toolkit through the animated sessions 'Adventures on the Inside.' We hope you have enjoyed continuing these lessons at home. If you have not managed to yet, please look on the PSHE curricullum page to download activities you can do with your child to continue these important conversations.
We hope you enjoy a well deserved rest with your children, and look forward to welcoming you back in Term 2.
Mrs Isaac and Mrs Paradise.
